Details for Ben Rinnes View

This Scandinavian style log cabin is situated right in the heart of the Scottish Highlands at Speyside and near the town of Abelour and is just a few miles away from the Cairngorms National Park

As its name suggests the cabin looks across to the mountain of Ben Rinnes which is very popular with hikers, there being a main path up the mountain to the summit from where the views are absolutely spectacular. Having two bedrooms, each with a double bed the cabin can sleep up to four people in comfort. There is a modern bathroom complete with shower cubicle and a kitchenette. The lounge has an airy open design with contemporary furnishings and a log burner. Outside there is a decking area complete with furniture where guests can enjoy a meal or a drink and take in the surrounding scenery.

Speyside boasts many distilleries and is home to the Malt Whisky Trail so guests should take the opportunity to visit one of them and try a wee dram. The Speyside Way footpath is literally at the end of the garden and extends from the Moray Firth a full fifty miles to the impressive Grampian Mountains. Explore the lochs, glens and forests in the local area and keep an eye out for wildlife. You are likely to spot red deer, red squirrels, otters, pine martens whilst overhead can often be seen ospreys and even golden eagles. There is an RSPB Osprey Centre at Loch Garten where these lovely birds can be observed during the nesting season. Off the coast at Moray Firth there are bottlenose dolphins to be seen. Walkers, climbers, mountain bikers, golfers and even surfers are all catered for in the surrounding area. Or take a day trip to Inverness, ‘the capital of the Highlands'...
